Wonderful Product for a happy Bassett
Our Bassett pup had two trips to the vet his first year... he would hardly walk on his hind right leg and was in terrible discomfort. The vet told us he has bad hips (common to Bassetts). Our vet Dr. Meyer (the BEST) recommended that before any drastic measures, we try Dasuquin... see how that helps, watch his diet and as he develops more muscle to support his hips... hopefully all will be much improved. It has been a year now since we started and all is well. Dash is very active and has not had another episode.

Most Effective
I tried Dasuquin on my vet's recommendation, and my tall pug went from limping on his back right leg to running in a matter of weeks. I couldn't believe it. Due to the cost, though, I tried two other products. One was a powder that I sprinkled over Guppy's (my dog's) food - he didn't want to touch the stuff (and when he did, he threw up). The other product was a harder treat that he eats semi-reluctantly, but it just plain doesn't work miracles like Dasuquin; he is back to limping. Guppy loves these treats and I love the result. Definitely a worthwhile purchase that I highly recommend!

Chihuahua
Our little girl Dixie has had joint issues for several years. Very common to Chihuahua's. If a knee would pop out of place, she hurt so much. We put her on Dasuguin soft chews and saw an incredible result. She runs, plays and is doing great. It has helped her avoid surgery, at least up to this point. She takes a half of a small dog chew every day. That is a good place to start. The taste seems to bother her, but a dab of peanut butter on the chew and she scarfs it right down (she might be a little spoiled)!! Fantastic product!!

great product
Our baby Chloe, who is now 6 years old was put on Dasuquin soft chews last year for frequent urination. Our wonderful vet. recommended this product and said, not only does this product work well for joint health, it also helps with the lining of the bladder. Since taking this product, Chloe has been doing great! Thanks to our wonderful vet., Dr. Dana and also Dasuquin!!!

Very Effective
Our Westie, Lily had surgery on both of her knees by the time she was 2 years old.
She was slow getting around so we had a round of special joint shots then afterwards our vet recommended to start her on Desequin soft chews.
Lily has been on this medicine for over a year and doing wonderful.

Hi Donna, good quesion. We only carry the Dasuquin without MSM in the chew, we do carry Dasuquin with MSM in the chewable tablet form: http://www.1800petmeds.com/Dasuquin+with+MSM-prod338143.html
My dog can not have anything with beef or beef flavoring. I have used this product with other dogs and like it. If this does have beef products in it do you have a suggestion for another product that is beef free?
